V1 Index Metadata
Archive of V1 Endpoints: Metadata
Find index statistics and release dates with Metadata. Index Metadata via API is only available with a paid API subscription.
This guide outlines the endpoints for now archived Moz API V1 endpoints. The Moz API V2 endpoints are available here.
Syntax
Metadata uses a different call structure than other Moz API calls: instead of specifying a target URL to analyze, metadata sends a single command with no parameters.
The default return format for last_update and next_update is an unencoded integer (the date in Unix Epoch format). Append .json to last_update and next_update to have the API return the results in JSON-encoded format.
For example, the following call returns an unencoded integer:
http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/metadata/last_update
This call returns JSON-encoded results:
http://lsapi.seomoz.com/linkscape/metadata/last_update.json
